Estimation of the angular resolution of the KM3NeT – (Inter-Calibration)
(Inter-Calibration)
1. Divide the detector in 2 identical sub detectors2. Reconstruct the muon separately for each sub detector3. Compare the 2 reconstructed track directions

Resolution Estimation (1 TeV Muons, isotropic flux, IceCube Geometry, 9600 OMs)
•Simulated events with at least 14 active OMs, after filtering out the background hits.
•The selected sample consisted, in average, of 24 active OMs per event, whilst the remaining contamination from K40 background hits was less than 0.5 OM per event.
•Each muon track was reconstructed using the information from the whole set of the active OMs as well as using the data from the two sub-groups, each containing the half of the selected OMs.
